Child Handbook

Ages 7–13

A handbook for children aged 7–13 who've just learned they have ADHD. In simple, warm language and gentle illustrations, it explains what ADHD is, what it might feel like at school, at home and with friends, and all the strengths that come with it too — creativity, energy, big ideas. Interactive pages let your child write and draw their own strengths, their support team, and what they're proud of. Written by the Affiniti+ team to help a new diagnosis feel less confusing and a little more like the beginning of understanding themselves.

Teen Handbook

Ages 13–18

A handbook for teenagers aged 13–18 who have recently received an ADHD diagnosis. Written by the Affiniti+ team, it explains what ADHD actually is — including the neuroscience behind it — and how it shows up at school, at home and in friendships. It covers the emotional side of a diagnosis, the strengths that often come alongside ADHD, and practical strategies your teenager can try straight away. It also addresses topics that matter particularly at this age: study skills, relationships, looking after mental health, and thinking about the future. Grounded in evidence and written with respect for your teenager's intelligence, it's a resource they can return to at their own pace.

Adult Handbook

Adult

A guide for adults who've just been told they have ADHD — or have wondered for years. Written by the Affiniti+ team, it explains what an ADHD diagnosis actually means, how it shows up at work, at home and in relationships, and where your strengths sit alongside the challenges. Grounded in NICE guidance, it offers practical strategies for daily life plus space to reflect on what the diagnosis means for you. A calm, evidence-based starting point — not a list of things to fix.

Women with ADHD Handbook

A handbook for women who want to understand how ADHD intersects with their hormones, their emotions, and their lives. In clear, evidence-informed language, it explores how ADHD symptoms can shift across the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause — and why this often goes unrecognised. It also covers emotion regulation, masking, relationships, and where to find support. Written by the Affiniti+ team to help women feel less confused and more in control of their own experience.
